They play nicely. Yeah, that's something we're working towards actually. I havn't played with the command-line client quite enough yet to be comfortable sticking it in a script to do the snapshotting. We also don't have everything on the SAN (some things can't be due to different security requirements and some paranoia) so we're making sure that what we're doing will work for those systems as well. Once I'm happier with the SAN command-line client I might substitute that in for the tar generation we're doing now for those databases on the SAN. Thanks, Stephen
